You didn't sign up for this. The politics. The bad leadership. The overtime traps. The BS calls. The marriages falling apart. The calls you never talked about. You signed up to fight fire. To help people on the worst day of their lives. To be part of a crew that has your back. Firefighters don't burn out on firefighting. They burn out on everything around it. And the way out isn't quitting, transferring, or sucking it up for twenty more years. It's becoming a different kind of firefighter. No therapy talk. No corporate self-help. Just real firehouse stories, hard lessons, and a way back to your health, your marriage, and your career.
